Beginning My Dreads! :)
Introduce Yourself
I working at a fortune 500 company that is in the business of finances, that's all I can really say lol. Currentl I have Kinky Twists in my hair and have been doing this style for about 3 years on and off between Kinky Twists and corn rows. I guess if I just braided my hair into individuals and didn't like how it was forming I could palm roll it until I was happy. Another problem I have is I'm extremely busy I work and attend school full time and that in itself is tiring but then having to maintain my hair on top of that would kill me lol. That's why I'm looking for someone who maintains as well. I have attached a picture of what kinky twist look like if you didnt already know. I'm sure there is a legal statute for religious expressions in reference to hair but in reality Colorado is an at will state and you can be fired for anything or nothing at all as a matter of fact so my only legal recourse would be a civil suit which, I wouldn't have the time or money for
but I do understand your meaning.

Yea I have heard that before the only problem is personally I don't like how it looks and secondly I would prefer not to have to deal with appearence issues in corporate america. I like my job and plan on keeping it for a while, in all honesty I don't know what would happen if I showed up Monday with the natural but I don't want to experiment with my livelihood
you know what I mean?

I am freaking out at the thought of doing this myself all I need is Aloe gel? I hear wax is bad but only people with straight hair have said that. I think another problem I'm having is that I have not been able to speak with anyone who has similar hair as me and I know hair types do make a difference.

So I am black for one for two I don't really care for the "natural" or neglect look. I want them to be uniformed and all similar in size and neat. For 3 my hair is 100% natural I have never had any sort of chemical treatment and my hair has been braided my whole life in various styles, so it's tougher then most peoples hair. With all of that Twist would be the way to go?
Also I do not under any circumstances want to do this myself, I do not know enough about it nor do I trust myself enough to it. That is kind of why I am looking for someone in my area that has done this on their own hair as well as others. Any ideas?

Hello Everyone,
I plan on starting my dreads this weekend and was wondering if anyone is in Denver, CO or knows of any one in Denver to help me with this process? I have looked over the different types of dreads and I think themethod I am going for is the twist & crochet methods. But I need guidence so any info would be greatly appreciated.
